Overall Satisfaction with Spotfire
I'm the sole user of Spotfire at the desktop for general data visualization and exploration. The vast majority of business problems I investigate are related to finance and banking.
- Rapid visualization of data: Very little setup from data to visualization (even compared with Excel).
- Extremely flexible visualization capabilities: Drag and drop features alone easily provide for visualization beyond 3-dimensions. Together with custom functions, Spotfire offers rapid high dimensional visualization capabilities.
- Steep learning curve for the extremely rich drag-and-drop features that are not always obvious.
- Steep learning curve for custom function capabilities that are not intuitive at all. TIBCO trainings are almost a must in order to take full advantage of these capabilities.
Tableau doesn't offer anything comparable to the visualization capabilities at high dimensions (>3).
